The International Monetary Fund, World Trade Organization and World Bank released a joint report called ‘Making Trade an Engine of Growth for All,’ which urges governments to address the negative impact global trade has had, especially in advanced economies. Christine Lagarde, IMF Managing Director, warns that trade will no longer be an engine for growth if there is no reform.
